There is no need to place the cursor.

1. Click Insert > Table of Contents > Remove

3.13.3 Methods

KompoZer builds the ToC using Ordered or Unor-

dered lists. (section 3.4.4). These lists have to be

nested to produce the structure required. The result is

that each level of the contents is indented relative to

the previous. The indentation may be altered using

styles and specifying the OL or UL and LI elements.

The changes required will be to the margin and pad-

ding (section 4.2.1.4). Any changes made will apply to

all lists on the page (not only ToC).

In order to make links work, each tag listed in the

table will have a named anchor added automatically

when the table is created or updated. Deleting a ToC

also deletes all these anchors.

3.14 The Head area

Every HTML document starts with a ‘Head’ area.

This provides information to browsers, search engines

etc but is invisible on the page.

Items included on the head are gathered from a

number of sources. These may include:

Items dependent on the Doctype as set when

creating the page (section 3.2.1).

Items collected from New Page Settings (section

9.1). Includes Author, Language.

Items set by the Format > Page Title and proper-

ties menu. Includes Title, Author, Description,

Language, Writing direction Character set.

Links to stylesheets (section 4.1.3.3)

Definitions for internal styles (section 4.1.3.2)

Source view allows advanced users to add further

information as desired.

3.15 Page views

KompoZer provides four ways of viewing a page -

‘Normal’, ‘HTML Tags’, ‘Source’, ‘Preview’. These are

selected using the tabs on the Edit mode Toolbar.

All provide full editing facilities.

Preview mode offers almost the same view as in

a browser with the addition of rulers and sizing

boxes. The main differences are that scripts do

not run (so their effects will not be seen), links

do not operate and the style for links does not

respond to any class set. Tooltips do work how-

ever.

Normal view is very similar but here table out-

lines show and markers for named anchors ap-

pear.

HTML Tags view assists those familiar with

HTML. There is a yellow marker for the start tag

for all elements (end tags are omitted). Clicking

on a marker selects and highlights the whole of

the element.

Note If clicking an element does not select it

press the control key while clicking.

You will also see the element highlighted on the

Status Bar (see figure). If you switch to Source view the

element remains highlighted,

Note It will be on the screen but possibly right

at the bottom.

This is of great assistance in editing. Marker names

correspond with the HTML tag name with a few excep-

tions.

Note Named anchors are shown with a symbol

whereas linked anchors are denoted by ‘A’, The

marker ‘Span’ is used when certain changes are

made inline with text – for instance if the colour

is changed for a single word. Span in HTML has

a more restricted use being confined to changes

implemented using styles. This may be confusing.

In HTML Tags view background images do not

appear.

Source view shows all detail of the HTML code.

All except the DOCTYPE may be edited.

An additional view is provided via the

‘Browse’ button. This opens your default brows-

er and gives full browser functionality and display to

a page.

Warning If your default browser is Internet

Explorer the page may open in source view

instead of page view.

3.16 Editing in Source view

This mode is intended for those confident in coding

in HTML. In this mode KompoZer is not simply a text

editor. On switching to a different mode KompoZer

carries out checks to ensure that the code is valid. If

not it ‘fixes’ it. It will have made its best guess at what

was intended – if it gets it wrong there is no going back

– no ‘Undo’ button. While this may sometimes save

you a lot of typing, if you know what you are doing, it

is also possible to end up with a heavily ‘messed up’

page – it will display but half the content could have

disappeared.

Needless to say good backup practice can save

many disasters. The Site Manager (section 8) is actu-

ally a convenient tool for doing this. Create a backup

folder and ‘Publish’ to this !

If you select an element via the status bar (see next

section) to highlight it, on switching to source view the

corresponding code will also be highlighted. This

makes it possible to locate code very easily. (For an

image the cursor will be adjacent to the code.)

The line numbers which appear are an editing

convenience, they form no part of the code. They can

help to find your place when switching modes. When

switching between applications the numbers are only

an approximate guide.
